Finding the best travel day is now easier with the new Flights Search Panel + Fare Insights Feature

Travelers are always searching for the best deals on their next flight and often adjust their travel dates to find the lowest available fare. Now, airline marketers can surface fare insights directly within the flight search panel — helping travelers quickly identify the best fares across dates and travel classes while increasing purchase intent. 

By leveraging PROS’ new Calendar Fare Insights feature within the Flight Search Panel, airlines can enhance the shopping experience from the very start of the traveler journey, making it easier for customers to discover the best available deals faster. 

With the latest enhancement, airlines can now choose between two Calendar Fare Insights experiences: the original color-coded fare bucket view and a new real-time lowest fare per day view. Both options are designed to improve fare discovery, support flexible date shopping, and create a more intuitive shopping experience across digital channels. 

Two Flexible Calendar Fare Insight Experiences 

Airlines can now configure Calendar Fare Insights using one of two display options, depending on their retailing strategy and customer experience goals. 

1. Color-Coded Fare Buckets (Original Experience) 

The original color-coded fare bucket view can be embedded across airTRFX pages and adds fare insights directly within the calendar date picker. This experience helps airlines drive higher-quality traffic to their booking engine while enabling travelers to identify optimal travel dates — or even explore alternative destinations, based on their preferences and budget. 

In this view, airline marketing teams can display fare tiers within the calendar modal using available pricing data. Fares are grouped into color-coded tiers, helping travelers quickly understand which travel dates fall into lower, medium, or higher fare ranges over the next year. 

For example, an airline can display tiers such as $110+, $344+, and $577+ to represent LOW, MEDIUM, and HIGH fare levels for a selected route. 

Each tier is calculated by analyzing the lowest and highest available fares for the selected route and dividing them into three pricing groups: 

 The starting fare for each tier is displayed within the calendar. Tier calculations are dynamically generated based on the selected route and up to one year of future fare data. 

Benefits include: 

This option is ideal for airlines that want to emphasize pricing patterns and encourage broader exploration of travel dates. 

The calendar experience can also be customized to align with an airline’s brand guidelines using your theme in our Design System. 

Examples of feature behavior based on different user selections: 

2. Lowest Fare Per Day (New Experience) 

The new Lowest Fare Per Day experience introduces real-time fare visibility directly within the calendar view, displaying the lowest available fare for each day. 

New capabilities include: 

This experience provides travelers with greater pricing transparency upfront while helping airlines drive engagement and conversion throughout the shopping journey. 

By offering both fare visualization approaches, Calendar Fare Insights gives airlines greater flexibility to tailor the shopping experience to their brand, merchandising strategy, and customer preferences — while supporting modern airline retailing and more engaging offer discovery.
